Beyond the obvious quads, working on flexibility, core strength, and endurance will be very important. A lot of rowing teams do longer races (ie 5k and 6k) in the fall which can be extremely demanding on the lungs.

Dont actually do rows. Rowing is all about lower body and core strength to maintain your balance. I'd suggest squats, deadlifts and some supplementary core stability. Also do yourself a favor and do some cardio so you dont throw up the first few times you get put on a erg to do a 5k
